Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Four susceptible or moderately resistant genotypes tested positive for the inoculated viruses.
- Observation Menina and Nigerian Local had zero symptom severity, less than other genotypes.
- Observation Soler had less ZYMV symptom severity than susceptible genotypes.
- Observation Soler PRSV severity resembled susceptible genotypes.
- Observation ZYMV generally caused greater symptom severity than PRSV.
- Intervention effect Potyvirus inoculation did not affect Menina yield relative to controls.
- Intervention effect Nigerian Local yield declined 45% relative to controls.
- Intervention effect Inoculated Waltham plots lost all yield.
- Intervention effect Inoculation showed little evidence of differences in anthesis, fruit size and quality.
- Intervention effect ZYMV reduced Soler average fruit weight by 32%.
- Intervention effect ZYMV reduced Soler fruit diameter, mesocarp thickness and chroma relative to controls.
- Method / resource Greenhouse ELISA or symptom scores generally predicted field virus resistance.
- Recommendation Authors favored Menina over Nigerian Local as a resistance source.
